What size straps should I be going for?
Hi all,
Gearing up to start buying some straps for my Panerai! I'd love some kind of an antique strap - the ones I have (black alligator, rubber) seem kind of dull to me. In any event, I don't understand the sizing. The OEM straps seem fine, what size are they? Thanks! |

115/75.You want at least 80/125 when going for the thick custom straps.I would even say 80/130 would be better.

If you talk to a quality strap maker, he'll help you out with the size you want, how much tail you want, etc. I talk to Rob (StrapSmith) and he gave me exactly what I asked for. He told me what size would work.

Thanks guys. I've found a strap I really like:
